What makes a cocktail \u201cwhite\u201d?<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"Coconut<\/p>\n

A white cocktail can get its colour in all sorts of ways. Some are rich and velvety thanks to <\/span>cream, milk or cream of coconut,<\/b> while others owe their silky appearance to<\/span> egg white<\/b> for cocktails, which creates a smooth, frothy foam. White cocktails can also be made with <\/span>white vermouth, pale aperitifs or clear spirits<\/b> like vodka, gin, tequila, or white rum paired with light mixers such as <\/span>coconut, citrus or soda<\/b>. If you’re after something a little more indulgent, <\/span>white chocolate liqueur<\/b> adds sweetness, creaminess, and a beautiful ivory finish. However they get there, these cocktails prove that understated can still make a statement.<\/span><\/p>\n
